Hello Everyone,

My name is Jim Gillam and I am looking forward to educating myself and then flipping my first home in MD this summer of 2016. I am an empty nester with 3 wonderful grown sons and my first grandbaby, a little girl, was born March 31, 2016. I live in a small town called Jefferson, MD. It is a suburb of Frederick, MD. The market I feel like I can wrap my brain around include Frederick, MD, Charlestown, West Virginia to Leesburg Virginia. (If you look on a map, imagine a triangle) I look fwd to hearing about your experiences and strategies so we can all take advantage of this cumulative think tank! I was a realtor in the 90's and was not a very good one so I only did it for a couple of years. I know very little about flipping so I am very new to the concept. I am very much looking forward to the process of learning and hopefully making an income that will give me some flexability with my schedule!

Hi Karen,

I am familiar with Lusby. I attended Charlotte Hall Military Academy back in the day and know that area pretty well. Like most areas, there are the good and not so good parts of town and in general, I think safe would be a pretty good fit for this area in general. With Lexington Park and Patuxent Naval Air Station so close by, you might want to focus on the base and see what off-base housing needs exist. Good luck!

Jim
